It's just something you'll have to accept -- people have this desperate, ridiculous need to cherry-pick and over-interpret facts to fit their agenda. There is literally no college football coach in the country that has experienced the level of success Saban has, and all the attempts to undercut his achievements by claiming lack of absolute perfection somehow equals serious flaws just makes these people sound really, really stupid and petty. If their coach had Saban's win record and national titles, they'd be so far over the moon they'd be crapping asteroids. But their coach doesn't, and it's inarguable, so all that's left is to say that Saban lost a game (OMG, the horror!) and thus must be inferior to their coach who...er, lost two or three games over the same time period.

I mean, seriously, if your best evidence of Saban's supposed inferiority is that, over the space of 3 seasons, he lost a game to a high-ranked opponent by 3 points, and another game to a high-ranked oppoentby a literal last second touchdown, and another game to a high-ranked by 5 points...you've fricking lost any perspective. And talking about Saban as if he's the only coach that has talent? Seriously? People are arguing that LSU and Auburn aren't abso-fricking-lutely stacked with talent themselves?
